Addoption of 2008 rules

[Infusebox]

If a project(residential dwelling) is underway(drywalled) and the state has just adopted 2008, is the code based upon when the permit was pulled or is it a moving target. Can the inspector require that changes be made to bring the dwelling current with 2008?

Usually around here, the permit date dictates the code used.

[RICK NAPIER]

In New Jersey all permits are inspected under the code in effect when the permit is applied for. Also there is a six month grace period after the adoption of a new code. In this grace period the applicant can design by the new or previous code.
